The soldiers approached the city, and Wang Jian's 30,000 sabers were in his hands, and the arrows were ready to fly.

I have to say that there is really a set of military training in these feudal towns, and it is no accident that Wang Jianneng has today's achievements.

He was able to take the forbidden army temporarily summoned by Zhaozong all the way to Xichuan, which was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and became the vassal king of Xichuan, which was extremely difficult to deal with.

And Wang Jian's general Wang Rui is his right-hand man, this time out of Sichuan, their purpose is to annex Tanzhou, Fuzhou, Jiangling area.

Once these three places were breached, the imperial court lost the southwest barrier. Now Tanzhou has been broken, and Fuzhou is also in the blink of an eye.

Wang Rui lifted the reins and stood out of the team. He was disdainful of the Fuzhou garrison, he looked at the thorn Shi Feng on the city wall and sneered: "Lord Feng, it's been a long time." As long as Lord Feng is willing to open the city gate and surrender, General Ben will ensure that you will enjoy endless glory and wealth in front of the King of Shu, which is much better than you following the Huangkou Xiaoer Emperor. ”

Feng didn't have to be angry, and angrily pointed at the rebels under the city and scolded: "Shameless dog thief, you betrayed the Son of Heaven and opposed my Datang." You still have the face to argue with the official here, Wang Rui, if you still have a little shame, just grab it quickly! This official can take you to Beijing and spare your life! ”

Both of them are clamoring, one is loyal to Datang and the other is loyal to the thief. One is famous in history, and the other is a high-ranking official who has been infamous for 10,000 years.

Wang Rui still has some understanding of this seal, this person is a Zhongshu Sheren, who offended the Son of Heaven and was demoted to Fuzhou. This man stinks and hard, and it's hard to change what he recognizes. But he still wanted to try: "No, the yellow-mouthed little emperor sitting in Luoyang City doesn't want to see you at all." I heard that because you opposed the establishment of the school, you were demoted to this Fuzhou to suffer. The little emperor didn't know how to train troops to strengthen the country, he only knew how to read and learn. How can such a faint monarch be worthy of your assistance, my Shu King Yingming I is the true dragon destiny. Lord Feng, you have to think clearly. ”

"Whew!" Feng Bu spit on the ground: "You wolf-hearted thief, the first emperor trusted you so much. You and others occupy Xichuan and set yourself up as king, and you will come from the shameless villains who have been treacherous and treacherous in the history books to record you! ”

Wang Rui was scolded to the wound, and he couldn't help but be furious, he grabbed the reins of the horse and spun around in place.

Gao Cheng, the guard next to Feng Bu, took a curved bow from the soldier next to him: "Say something to such a shameless villain!" After speaking, he bent his bow and shot at Wang Rui under the city.

"Whoosh!" With a bang, the feather arrow shot straight at Wang Rui. Because the distance was too far, the strength of the feather arrow declined, and when it came to Wang Rui. was gently separated by Wang Rui with a long sword.

Wang Rui knew that it was useless to persuade him to surrender again, so he waved his sword and pointed directly at the city tower: "Siege the city!"

"Knock knock! ......" The drums of the rebels under the city shook the sky, and 30,000 iron cavalry took turns to attack.

It's a pity that the city wall of Fuzhou has long been dilapidated, and the people who don't need to be temporarily put together are only 3,000 people, and Wang Rui is a fierce general, and he carries siege weapons ladders and stone throwers.

"Put!" Under the order of Wang Rui's stone tool battalion, countless flying stones fell in Fuzhou City.

"Bang bang bang!" This stone thrower was so powerful that the bricks of the Fuzhou city wall were shattered by the impact.

Some boulders fell into the city, smashing the houses in the city to pieces.

Some of the soldiers on the city wall were hit by boulders, and countless people were killed and injured.

Li Ji was wrong, he made a huge mistake. Although the forbidden army was equipped with a lot of sharp weapons, these border guards in Fuzhou were still primitive weapons, and they even owed the archers.

That was because Li Ji thought that the deterrent power of the imperial court was enough, and he did not dare to let the feudal towns move. Not only Li Ji thought so, but also the ministers, and even the garrisons of Fuzhou City thought that these feudal towns were afraid of the imperial court forces and did not dare to send troops.

Who knew that they all underestimated these vassal kings, and before Li Ji could cut the domain, Wang Jian was the first to make a move.

Li Ji's original plan was to put the plan of cutting the feudal domain on the agenda as soon as autumn or the beginning of spring next year, but in any war, the enemy will not give you time to breathe, unless the enemy does not want to live.

The city wall of Fuzhou is much more dilapidated than that of Tanzhou, and the garrison is not as many as Tanzhou. To Wang Rui's surprise, the Fuzhou defenders were so able to resist and actually repelled his two attacks.

Gao Cheng led his soldiers to use bows and arrows and stones on the city wall to deal with the enemy troops who climbed up the mansion with ladders, and soon the bows and arrows in their hands ran out, and the stones were gone.

Wang Rui's subordinates continued to attack like a sea of mountains, and they occupied the numerical advantage, and rows of cloud ladders were erected on the city wall.

Soon, a gap was opened in the southeast corner, and some of Wang Rui's subordinates had already climbed the city wall.

There were not many defenders on the walls, and as soon as the enemy rushed to the walls, they immediately covered them like a tide.

Gao Cheng was injured in his right arm and could only hold a knife in his left hand. Feng Bu, who has always been powerless, also held a big knife and stepped forward to kill the enemy.

'Whew! With a sound, Feng was not stabbed in his right leg, and Gao Cheng next to him was quick and slashed the thief to death with one sword.

At this time, several cold arrows flew and hit Gao Cheng's back heart and sealed the front abdomen respectively.

And more than half of the guards on Fuzhou City have been killed and wounded, and they can't hold the city if they dare to look at it.

Gao Cheng and Feng Bu were seriously injured again, but fortunately, a few diehards under his command desperately broke through and retreated into the city through a gap in the city wall.

And the guards on the city wall were surrounded by thieves who rushed up the city wall, and they all died in battle.

The two were covered in blood, and they led a few of their subordinates to retreat while fighting in the city.

The disparity between the two sides was too great, and Fuzhou eventually fell into the hands of the enemy.

Gao Cheng and Feng didn't have to be surrounded by thieves, the two of them were already covered in blood and wounds. Gao Cheng shouted, waved his knife and rushed into the enemy formation, slashing three people one after another, and fighting hard.

Feng didn't need to see the defender die, so he also pounced and died under the knife.

So far, Fuzhou has been completely lost.

Li Ji was shocked and angry when he got the news, after all, he was too young, and he never thought that the first one to rebel was Wang Jian.

Li Ji has actually been making preparations, the biggest threat to the imperial court is Li Keyong, so he stationed heavy troops in the northeast and transferred Ge Congzhou to prevent Li Keyong.

Who knows, the first one to be reversed turned out to be him Xichuan Wang Jian.

In the early dynasty of Hanyuan Palace, the ministers had already fried the pot, Tanzhou and Fuzhou were lost one after another, and the ministers were all shocked.

"I'm really confused, I always thought that the world was too peaceful, and no one dared to do anything with the court. I naively thought that the enemy would really give me time to train a strong army. Now that the two counties are lost, what suggestions do you have for Aiqing? ”

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that an envoy should be sent into Sichuan for this matter. Mainly to appease, peace talks with the king of Shu. Yu Shi Cui Yuan stood up and said.

Li Ji frowned: "Peace talks?"

"Exactly, if the court goes to war. I am afraid that it will cause a backlash in the feudal towns, and Wang Jian is nothing more than dissatisfied with the imperial court, so we can only order to appease and reward him to achieve the goal of striking the army. Cui Yuan continued.

Li Ji looked at people and wanted to kill people: "You mean, he Wang Jian sent troops to capture the land of my two counties and killed my two loyal ministers. Not only do I not blame, but I also want to make an order to appease? ”

Cui Yuan wiped his sweat: "That's not what the minister meant......"

"Then what do you mean!" Li Ji was furious: "Feng is not used because he is my Zhongshu Sheren, and I demoted him to Fuzhou." Not only did he not have resentment, but he led the people of Fuzhou to fight to the death against the enemy to the end, and finally fought and martyred! Not only did I not avenge him, but I also issued an order to appease the thief Wang Jian? ”

Cui Yuan's hand shook and he knelt down in fright: "Your Majesty, the old minister has no intention of surrendering." The minister means that the court is not fully prepared at the moment, in case Li Keyong, Yang Xingmi and others follow and rebel. We don't have enough food and grass, and our soldiers are in danger ......"

"Who said we don't have enough food and grass?" Unexpectedly, at this time, Zhang Wenwei stood up and interrupted Cui Yuan's words: "Your Majesty, the minister has been preparing for this day. As long as Your Majesty speaks, my household department will ask for money and money, and food and grain! ”

Zhang Wenwei, who has always been picky, and Zhang Wenwei, who can't break a penny in half, has become so generous at this moment.

"Good! I might as well tell you Aiqing that the feudal town is going to fight, and I will fight! If you want to make peace, you can't do it unless you step over my corpse! ”

No one thought there was anything wrong with this, and the ministers immediately became excited.

"That's it, we have money and people now, what are we afraid of!"

"Yes, them!"

"The feudal town is too deceitful, and the imperial court has not yet made a move, so they actually made the first move."

"That's it!" Li Ji interrupted everyone: "Cui Yuan said that the imperial court is not fully prepared, which is also true. This is my negligence, now that the thieves are attacking, the general is willing to lead the troops into battle? ”

For a while, the generals of the forbidden army in the main hall were all ready to try.

Jin Wuwei General Xiao Nuoyan stood up: "Your Majesty, the minister is willing to lead the troops!"

"Oh, you have a good plan to defend against the enemy?" Li Ji asked.

Xiao Nuoyan thought for a while: "The minister thinks that what Lord Cui Yuan said is not unreasonable, and it should be appeased." However, it was not he Xichuan Wang Jian who appeased, but the imperial court immediately sent envoys to Jinyang and Jianghuai to appease Li Keyong, the king of Jin, and Yang Xingmi, the king of Wu. In case the two of them take the opportunity to raise troops, and for Wang Jian, the minister is willing to lead the troops to fight! ”

Li Ji was overjoyed when he heard this: "I also have this intention, but now it is just Wang Jian, the king of Shu, raising troops to attack." King Jin, King Wu, Wei Bojun, and Ma Yin have not yet moved, and they should be appeased for the time being. In this way, the imperial court can concentrate its forces against Wang Jian alone, he is alone, and Xichuan will die! ”

The bad handsome Fan Yao stood up: "Your Majesty, I am afraid that Wang Jian will join the army, and these feudal towns will take the opportunity to rebel together." The capital is far away, if the king of Jin and the king of Wu rebel together, we have to guard against it. ”

Li Ji's pride suddenly became angry: "Even if these feudal towns rebel together, what am I afraid of!" Soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, and those who dare to oppose me will die! ”

Li Ji has the confidence to say this, although he is not fully prepared at the moment. But the imperial court is still fully sure to kill these feudal towns, but the price paid is relatively large.

Li Ji originally planned to send troops in the autumn as soon as possible, and at that time, Luoyang City would have a continuous supply of grain and grass. With the output of new grain crop seeds in Luoyang City, as well as those new weapons developed, the imperial court can afford to fight him for ten or eight years.
